Wikis, Blogs, and More!

Presentation Date: AAIM Conference, Sunday April 20, 2008


Join me as I share online tools that provide safe social networking opportunities for students, the LMS, and teachers. Participants will gain information on which tools are available, how to get started, project ideas, and view student work in action. Come see how I met the standards and had a great time in the process!
